make a room out of it...

 

We have just added a bunch of great stuff into the shop... and I thought it might be fun to share a quick way to make a room from pieces in it.  It might also show you that I do have a rhyme and reason to the pieces that I hand select for the shop- I promise I do (!).  

 When I select piece for the shop I always try to mix it up a little of this and a little of that, things that would work well together.  I love interiors that are a little more relaxed that way and not to trendy one way or another.  It is fun to pick a bit of the latest trend and mix it in, but not necessary! And I am sure from reading the blog you know I love vintage so I always want a little bit of that in there too.. accessories, art, textiles furnishings, whatever catches my eye.

brocante shopping in Normandie...

 

I know I have been promising to share more of our shopping adventures in France... so here we go.  We shopped in Paris for the first part of the week and then came to shop with Sharon from My French Country Home in Normandie.  It was a whirl wind visit once again with many hours spent shopping and loading and unloading of goodies..  This was one of our fist stops, I will be sharing more over the next few weeks leading up to our sale in September.  

Now that our container has arrived and we have begun to sort and clean things it has become a reality and we have set the date for our sale which will include many of the pieces we found while in France as well as some additional treasures from here and there.

Normandie weather was a little grumpy while we were there with rain almost everyday at some point.

But the fields were beautiful and there was yellow everywhere we went.

This sweet little shop we visited the first afternoon after arriving from Paris.  She had a wonderful chicken farm out back that I was dying over!  Her shop was full of sweet whimsical little creatures and beautiful treasure, as well as a little tea shop in the back.  We warmed up with tea and treats before setting off to our next destination.

 

 

These furniture pieces were so cool.  They are vintage pieces re-purposed for outdoor use.   Looking back I wish I had bought a few.

 

 I did pick up this sweet little set, cannot wait to unwrap it!

Vintage fabric pillows

I admit I have a thing for vintage fabrics... let's just call it a problem okay.  Just before I left these sweet little things were finished but I did not have a chance to share them with you.  I pulled them all out this weekend and love them all together.  The Ikat is new for me and I love the way they came out, so clean but so wonderfully modern mixed with the Batik fabrics.  I have put most of them in the shop because let's face it, I cannot have them all!   I have used mostly vintage fabric pillows in my home just because I want them to be unique, I think that is the best way for a home to be... mixed and matched with vintage and new.  What do you think?  Do you do vintage?
